Love Goes to Buildings on Fire is the first book to tell
the full story of the era’s music scenes and the phenomenal and
surprising ways they intersected. From New Year’s Day 1973 to New Year’s
Eve 1977, the book moves panoramically from post-Dylan Greenwich
Village, to the arson-scarred South Bronx barrios where salsa and
hip-hop were created, to the Lower Manhattan lofts where jazz and
classical music were reimagined, to ramshackle clubs like CBGBs and The
Gallery, where rock and dance music were hot-wired for a new
generation.(from)
